Description Not a chef, not a culinary expert—just a devoted homemaker, Ok Jubu! Jung Jong-chul, father of three and known to everyone as 'Ok Jubu,' sets the family table every single day. Asking himself 'What should I cook today?' has become second nature. He finds joy in shopping for pretty aprons and dishes, and even picks up rubber gloves designed to prevent dishpan hands. He didn't start cooking just to become a 'good dad.' At some point, seeing his wife struggle to care for their three children alone struck a chord in him, and he realized that raising a family was something both parents needed to share. Having always had an interest and a knack for cooking, he began preparing meals for his family—and found he genuinely enjoyed it. Known for throwing himself completely into whatever catches his interest (he's tried fishing, cars, photography, and more), cooking turned out to be different from all his other hobbies. He was amazed at how his family's reactions changed depending on how much effort he put in. The more passionate he became about cooking, the more his wife and children smiled, and the happier the whole family grew. Recipes Approved by 500,000 Followers Ok Jubu filled notebook after notebook with recipes, constantly experimenting with ingredients and searching for the perfect seasoning balance—all in pursuit of feeding his family something more delicious. The daily grind wasn't always easy, and there were times his children's picky complaints about side dishes stung. So he began looking for easier ways to cook, documenting his process and results every day on Instagram—and along the way, he found many kindred spirits. He calls them 'my people.' For the precious 500,000-plus followers he's gained simply by living life as a devoted homemaker, he's continually searching for recipes that are tastier and easier to make. Together, they share tips and ideas, and comfort one another through the emotional bumps and bruises of raising teenagers. These days, he can sit at the breakfast table facing a barrage of different menu requests from his teenage kids without losing his cool—and after years of trial and error, his cooking rarely goes wrong anymore.
